Westminster Bridge, London. 7th September 2016. Demonstrators stage a protest on Westminster Bridge for over an hour causing traffic chaos for commuters in the centre of London. The protest, organised by members of Disabled People Against Cuts (DPAC), coincided with the Prime Minister’s Questions after Parliament returned back from recess. The activists are calling on the new Prime Minister to make public the findings of the UN investigation into the UK for violations of Deaf and Disabled people’s rights, to scrap the Work Capability Assessment and commit to preventing future benefit-related deaths.
